FIRE SUPPRESSING DEVICE
A fire suppressing device including a torus container with a main body defining an interior chamber and a discharge port, the interior chamber configured to receive and retain metal organic framework materials. The fire suppressing device also includes an inductor coil extending through the interior chamber of the torus container and surrounding the metal organic framework materials. The inductor coil is configured to heat the metal organic framework materials to form a fire suppressing substance that is conveyed through the discharge port.
Wild Fire Fighting Products and Associated Methods
The present invention relates to fire suppressant systems and methods for suppressing or extinguishing fires. These fires may be wild fires. It also relates to new methodologies that employ a fire suppression technique that allows for one to target particular areas of a fire. The methods and systems for effectively at least partially suppressing and/or extinguishing fires include the use of a container that will disappear/disintegrate when exposed to the fire allowing fire retardant materials contained in the container to be exposed to thereby suppressing or extinguishing the fire.
Method for reducing noise and room air overpressure on discharge of a gas extinguisher system
Noise and room air overpressure on discharge of a gas extinguisher system is reduced. During the discharge, an extinguishing fluid is conveyed from a pressurized container via a container valve and line system to an extinguishing nozzle. At the beginning of the discharge the extinguishing fluid is predominantly present in the line system in liquid phase and after discharge it assumes a predominantly gaseous phase. In a phase transition period, which is accompanied by a significant reduction in the extinguishing fluid mass flow and a significant increase in the noise and the room air pressure, the mass flow is then reduced or stopped. Due to the reduction of the mass flow, the sound level of the noise arising is advantageously reduced to a value of a maximum of 100 dB and the room air pressure to an overpressure value ranging from 200 to 1000 Pa.
Extinguishing-fluid-nozzle system for stationary fire-extinguishing systems
An extinguishing fluid nozzle system (1, 100, 200), for stationary fire extinguishing systems, with an extinguishing fluid nozzle having a main body (3, 104, 204) which has an inlet opening (23, 123, 223) and can be fixed in fluid-conducting relationship to an extinguishing fluid line, a nozzle head (5, 106, 206) which has one or more outlet openings (25, 125, 225) connected in fluid-conducting relationship to the inlet opening for the discharge of the extinguishing fluid, and an aperture (7, 107, 207) having an aperture ring (15, 115, 215) for flow limitation, arranged in the fluid path between the inlet opening and the one or more outlet openings. The aperture has a grip portion (17, 117, 217) which is fixedly connected to the aperture ring and which extends outwardly from the aperture ring and which in the fitted condition of the aperture extends outside the extinguishing fluid nozzle.
Multi TFI with fluid sprinklers
A fire extinguisher apparatus that consists on a loading lever network that gets built in the transport equipment allowing manipulation of the device that is directly introduced to the fire to compress it and by this, stopping the combustion process. Simultaneously, the said extinguishing apparatus will inject a series of substances over the flames, drastically reducing temperature of the fire zone, avoiding reignition when the device collapses on the different interventions these have. The Main Lever of such network is originally built in to the transport equipment and one end will branch different tips which will form a net of smaller lever which will hang the TFI device. A tension cable will go across the upper part of the Main lever to bring more resistance and provide much more strength by preventing arcing of the lever when handling very heavy loads. A pipeline network that extends and is supported over and through the lever network, transports the cooling substances from the fluid deposits until the injecting sprinklers are arranged in the upper part of the attack devices.
FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM AND METHOD
A spray system comprising a nozzle including an inlet body and an outlet body. The inlet body has an inlet surface that defines an inlet fluid channel that extends about an inlet flow axis through the inlet body from an inlet opening to a chamber opening. The outlet body has an outlet surface and a chamber surface. The outlet surface defines at least a portion of an outlet chamber and an in outlet fluid channel. The outlet chamber extends about an outlet flow axis from the chamber surface toward the outlet fluid channel. The outlet fluid channel extends about the outlet flow axis from an outlet opening toward the outlet chamber. The inlet fluid channel of the inlet body is in fluid communication with the outlet chamber of the outlet body via the chamber opening, and the inlet flow axis is spaced from the outlet flow axis.
BATTERY MODULE WITH IMPROVED VENTING PERFORMANCE
A battery module improves safety by suitably controlling venting of a gas generated inside the battery module. The battery module includes a cell assembly having at least one battery cell; a module case configured to accommodate the cell assembly in an inner space thereof and having a venting hole formed to discharge a venting gas generated from the cell assembly; and a venting unit provided to an outer side of the module case and configured to have a venting channel formed in at least one layer so that the venting gas discharged from the venting hole is introduced into the venting channel and is movable in the inner space.
BATTERY PACK INCLUDING FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM
A battery pack includes a fire extinguishing system. The battery pack includes: a housing; a battery module in the housing and including a plurality of spaced apart battery cells; an agent storage unit storing a fire extinguishing agent and injecting the fire extinguishing agent into the housing when an abnormal temperature is detected; a first perforated plate at a side of an inflow passage of the housing where the fire extinguishing agent flows from the agent storage unit to the housing, including a plurality of first opening holes for passing the fire extinguishing agent and guiding the fire extinguishing agent to a connection passage between the respective battery cells, and uniformly distributing the fire extinguishing agent injected into the connection passage from the inflow passage through the plurality of first opening holes; and a fan discharging the fire extinguishing agent injected into the housing to the outside thereof.
FIRE EXTINGUISHING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR EXTINGUISHING A FIRE
Fire extinguishing device (100). The invention is characterised in that the fire extinguishing device comprises a flask engagement means (110), arranged to engage with a flask (10) for compressed carbon dioxide and to hold the fire extinguishing device in an operating orientation in relation to such a flask; an actuating means (120), arranged to apply a pressure on a valve (13) of said flask when in said operating orientation so that the valve as a result of said pressure opens and carbon dioxide flows out from the flask, which actuating means in turn comprises a lever means (121) for transferring a force applied by a user within said actuating means (120) for applying said pressure; and a carbon dioxide directing means (130), arranged to direct a jet (20) of carbon dioxide flowing out from the flask when said valve is open.
